The Wopida Group - Who We Are
The Wopida, Training and Service Group is an association of entrepreneurial spirits who support each other in creating ecologically sustainable, profitable businesses that are led by missions of integrity and value.
Wopida develops products and services that support individuals, families and communities to capture family/ancestral spiritual stories, sharing their powerful healing energies through writing, singing, photography and video, supporting functional human development for the next seven generations.
Wopida is the Dakota word for Gratitude.
"When I visioned and founded the Group in 2006, I had been reflecting on the gifts of my family tree. Gifts of resilience and love of Nature. My parents had moved from Ohio in 1938 to begin a life following the “call of the loon,” the state bird of Minnesota, and a sound that seemed to echo their passion for the peace and serenity they found discovering nature. Thus, as their third son I was born where the prairies, deciduous woodlands and waters meet, in Wakpecute Dakota territory overlooking the Straight River in Faribault, Minnesota." - Tom Weaver 2008
“After contracting with Master Supplements, my accountant suggested I create an LLC through the Secretary of State in Minnesota. Wopida Group LLC was legally organized under the laws of Minnesota on March 25, 2009.” Tom Weaver 2009
